Yes, have fun Rangie!

Always liked staying in a caravan, but neither my husband or I ever towed one.  We often rented a site large site caravan for our holidays when the kids were young.

That may have been due to the fact that in my business travels driving a lot on the M4, M5 and M6 in especially the Summer months, I used to see so many "vans" on their sides, with towing vehicle still attached, after the driver had lost control due to a) poor driving b) strong cross winds or c) pure stupidly of not having the right tow vehicle vs the weight of the caravan!   Having said that I once witnessed a very large caravan on it's side, blocking all 3 lanes of the M6, with the towing lorry, no less right over the crash barrier!

Still, it seems Rangie you are well experienced in enjoying the caravan experience, so best of luck to you!

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Put it up for sale.
The Boxster that is. The Omega isnt going anywhere. 

How much?

Always leave plenty of a gap for braking as you have two extra tons pushing you on and stick to the 60 mph limit, I see idiots belting past me at 70-80 mph & the caravan is bouncing from side to side , they haven't a chance in hell of pulling up in a straight line if the need arises.

£2800 to you, if you want a bit of top down summer fun. Im sure all the young Lincolnshire chicks will be very impressed. 

Mechanically its pretty good, but cosmetically (particularly the bumpers) scruffy. And a paltry 217bhp.

Got it at a really good price , hardly had any use bought in lockdown as many were & then decided that caravanning is not for them, they've lost thousands, as the saying goes fools & their money are soon parted..👍

As an ex owner of various new caravans over 25+ years I thought I'd take a look. Very nice  , and a sensible layout for just two of you, but also very useful layout if you've got grandchildren staying with you, as you can shut the privacy door so that both halves of the van can use the toilet/shower facilities. Our Swift Conqueror was like that. 
Did you notice, or am I going mad, that the internal size is listed as 20'12" and the overall width is listed as 7'12". It's a long time since I left school but isn't that the same as 21 feet and 8 feet.

Lovely piece of kit rangie!

I've been working on the other half rem caravanning in our later years. Can't sell her on it as yet. 

Having been to the US a few times and seen the huge 5th wheel vans they have over there, I'd love one of those, but not ideally suited to European roads 🤣

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

I have actually been entertaining the thought of a Motorhome recently.
I really am getting old ! 

[TheBoy]

I think it's disappeared off their site now Rangie, but I saw some others and fell off the chair!!  £50k for a 2nd hand pikey palace!!!  I really am out of touch, as I thought mid range new ones were only £20k.  But then I think small family hatchbacks are only £15k


I must be getting (almost) as old as Uncle Albs!
